Getting Connected
An HPC system is not like a regular computer that you can log into and begin using, there are multiple parts that make up the system. This pages below instruct users in using the applications that have the ability to use ssh. Ssh is one of the main methods for users to securely login to an HPC system. The Terminal, which is a native application on Linux and macOS, provides the means of using ssh. Older versions of Windows 10 do not have a native application that has the ability to use ssh, one must be downloaded. Those versions need a separate ssh client to be installed as an application. One of the commonly used applications is called PuTTY, but there are other options, such as MobaXTerm.
